May our sons in youth, be firm in their roots May our daughters be pillars in the palace of truth May our houses be homes, may our wells overflow May our peace increase ten-thousand fold May our sons in youth, be firm in their roots May our daughters be pillars in the palace of truth May our houses be homes, may our wells overflow May our peace increase ten-thousand fold May we slay deceit, rise from defeat May You keep us from captivity May our walls be strong, if we sing Your songs If we sing Your praises all day long May our sons in youth, be firm in their roots May our daughters be pillars in the palace of truth May our houses be homes, may our wells overflow May our peace increase ten-thousand fold May we slay deceit, rise from defeat May You keep us from captivity May our walls be strong, if we sing Your songs If we sing Your praises all day long May You raise the roads, all the old dry bones Of this sun-burned city that we call our home If we quickly come where injustice is done If we spend ourselves for the ones You love May we loose the chains, may we break the bonds May we break our bread with the hungry ones May we not pass by when the naked cry For a coat or a quarter or a little bit of time May we slay deceit, rise from defeat May You keep us from captivity May our walls be strong, if we sing Your songs If we sing Your praises all day long May we slay deceit, rise from defeat May You keep us from captivity May our walls be strong, if we sing Your songs If we sing Your praises all day long
